Rufus Wainwright Movies of Myself lyrics

Stop me falling down
Stop me making movies of myself
Put that old dog down
Stop me making movies of myself

Bring the carriage 'round
Get me to the garden of sleep
Make that high gate speak
Perrier out of a paper bag

Looking like a hag and start giving me something
A love that is longer than a day
Start making my heart sing
Something that it doesn't want to say

I'm handing it over
I'm saying that you're the only one
Don't run for the border turn that corner
Already you've run in movies of myself

Darling, don't you ever let go

Wrap your loving arms around me
While the cold winds blow
Tell me what I really want to know

'Cause I'm looking for a reason, a person, a painting
A Saturday evening post edition by Jesus
An old piece of bacon never eaten by Elvis

So I'll say start giving me something
A love that is longer then a day
Start making my heart say
something it doesn't want to say

I'm handing it over
I'm singing that you're the only one
Don't run for the border, turn that corner in movies on myself
Oh I've seen it all before in movies of myself
